Open Thread: 2011 NFL Draft, Rounds 4-7

PrintDay 3! The final, and most grueling, day of the NFL Draft is here.
If you're a Chargers fan, you can go back to bed for a little while. Even though the picking starts at 9am Pacific, the Chargers do not have a 4th or 5th round pick. All of the important selections have been made, and when the Chargers use either of their 6th round picks (183, 201) and their 7th round pick (234) they'll be taking guys that are projects, camp bodies and long-shots to make the roster.
Recent 6th & 7th round picks for the Bolts include: Dedrick Epps, Kevin Ellison, Demetrius Byrd, DeJuan Tribble, Corey Clark, Brandon Siler, Jeromey Clary, Kurt Smith, Chase Page and Jimmy Martin. Okay, so I was wrong. Ellison, Siler and Clary have all made good contributions to the team. Maybe there's somebody left out there that could do the same.
So far the Chargers have grabbed themselves a DE, a nickel CB or FS that can return kicks and punts, an ILB that can serve as insurance for Kevin Burnett/Brandon Siler/Donald Butler (respectively: UFA/RFA/coming back from major injury), a local WR with good fundamentals and a CB that fell due to an injury on his Pro Day, but might have the potential to eventually replace Quentin Jammer on the outside.
As I said yesterday, I didn't really see the point of grabbing another OLB if the only ones that were left were going to be roughly as talented as Jyles Tucker, Antwan Applewhite, Antwan Barnes and Larry English (potential still not met). The depth is there, and the only reason to grab someone is if they're going to step in and be better than all of them. That seems to always be the philosophy of this team. I'll break this down on a pick-by-pick basis tomorrow.
Stick around here tonight as news will fly in fast and furiously about which undrafted free agents are coming to San Diego. That's always fun.

If I understand correctly
There won’t be any UDFAs coming in any time soon. No free agents without a CBA.
"Were such things here as we do speak about?
Or have we eaten on the insane root
That takes the reason prisoner?"
ooohhh, good point
That’s gonna make it odd.
Also, shorter day for me.

Quite some time before the Chargers pick
I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t at least intrigued with the possibility of Chris Carter or Greg McElroy.

As for QB
I guess it’s a question as to whether you want a guy that maybe can play quickly or someone that actually has starter potential. McElroy doesn’t seem like he has starter potential.

This is going to sound retarded
But with the backup QB being so involved on the sideline, and maybe helping to call plays, I prefer someone who is smart, hard-working and even-keeled. Those are the things I care about most. That seems to be McElroy.
I’m not looking for starter potential.

I don't know if that's worth a draft pick
There are other guys as FAs that can probably do that.
I mentioned Nathan Enderle before as a guy that might be good for the Chargers. Very smart. Has a lot of bad habits to correct.

I know they're different types of players
He’s a QB that could be a good backup, but someone might fall in love with if he’s sitting behind Rivers for a few years. Better arm than Whitehurst, and a thousand times better in the pocket.

Part of the knocks already on him were character related
Unsure if he wanted to work hard. He didn’t like getting pushed around, struggled against press coverage, didn’t like to run block, didn’t like to go over the middle.

Straight-line speed is adequate-to-good for the position and he flashes good closing burst when the ball is thrown in front of him. Makes his presence felt in the middle of the field. Has good ball skills but also shows ability to lower the boom and separate ball from receiver. However, he lacks ideal agility and he shows slow feet in his pedal. He is tight in the hips and struggles to smoothly transition. Not an easy mover. Takes too long to change directions. He will struggle to consistently cover the deep middle of the field and will need to be perfect with his key/diagnose in order to do so. Also will be limited in man-to-man coverage. Will be at best covering deep halves in a scheme featuring lots of Cover 2 zone.

Has adequate-to-good size and is generally aggressive versus the run. Likes to mix it up and usually takes solid angles in pursuit. Flashes some jarring pop at point of attack. However, he is tight in the hips and struggles to break down and wrap up in space. Plays too high and occasionally gets exposed for his tendency to tackle too high. Also can be engulfed by bigger blockers when aligned near the line of scrimmage

I like the last sentence
Ball skills are good but not elite. Aggressive and takes good angles to the point. Does a nice job of turning, locating and playing the deep ball. Will secure routine interceptions and flashes ability to make highlight-reel catch. May have limitations when caught in jump ball situations with bigger TE or WR.

If Mouton is a great special teamer
And a functional contributing ILB, I could live with the pick, lot of ifs, but I think Bissachia made his pick.
Why's that?
Because our ILB situation was so good that AJ couldn’t have possibly made it?
Cooper: gone
Burnett: UFA
Siler: RFA (7th round tender)
Butler: returning from major surgery

I understand the situation but what from I'm reading his skills as a ILB...
hardly justify the pick, he better be one awesome special teamer
I think you're reading it wrong
My understanding of Mouton is this:
-He wouldn’t fit as an OLB in the 3-4
-He also wouldn’t fit as a MLB or OLB in the 4-3
Both of these are because he has a relatively limited skillset. However, at ILB in the 3-4 (where you cover only half the field and don’t really need to do much else besides being about to play zone-coverage and being able to tackle guys that run right at you), he seems like a very good fit. Everything I’m reading reminds me of Donald Butler (or Kevin Burnett).

He struggles with the latter. The former is more of a projection than actual ability at this point. That is, if you believe Scouts, Inc’s report.

Having Weddle walk in to meet with Manusky the other day was an awesome sign. I doubt Burnett would’ve gotten play-calling duties last year if they were going to let him walk….he also loves the Chargers training staff.
I think the ILBs will look like Burnett, Butler, Mouton and Siler.

he was a safety, and he was productive, so lets try to be optimistic
Yeah he was a safety in High school
and Liuget was a QB in high school…so we don’t need a 3rd QB on the roster. Haha, okay maybe that doesn’t translate quite as well. I feel a tad bit better about Mouton after sleeping on it and doing some more research, but can’t get over the 2nd rounder we used on him…

Here's my plot outline for the movie
Guy’s dong isn’t feeling well, goes to doctor.
Nurse does him. Doctor is a lady, she joins in.
Finds out there’s cancer in his peen.
Bangs his way through the sadness.
Girlfriend is upset about so she cheats on him, first with a chick then with a dude (you have to give the main character a break, no one wants to see the same guy over and over).
Guy finds out Lady Doctor was a hack. Doesn’t have cancer. Celebration orgy.
In the sequel it’s called Remission, but no one is actually in remission. We just need at least one scene with the main guy in the first Bone Cancer.
I should really go into this business.

There was a really good feature on him on "Path to the draft"
and the guy is a straight up beast…
They had Willie McGinest come by to coach him and you could tell that Willie was impressed
High upside assuming he can get back to where he was before cancer
when many had him pegged as a top 10 LB…
I’m not entirely convinced, but he seems like a good guy to have in the lockerroom and that he could contribute on special teams.
He reminds me of Carlos Polk
Not that fast, plays really high, terrible playing in space. He’s a special teamer at best.

No I dont see him as a pass rusher in a 3-4 either
I see him as a special teams captain first and maybe develop into a big guy at ILB
thats so funny you bring that up
I would love to bring him in. My father who’s also a chargers fan has been mediocre feeling about him. I think he’d be worth it at this point. Anybody know anything about the olb/de kenny rowe from oregon? he seemed pretty good occasionally

about Cliff Matthews
“He offers potential in a conventional four-man line or standing up over tackle in a 3-4 alignment but is likely to be nothing more than backup in the NFL”
Good option?, he will be motivated to show he’s not a backup, plus AJ likes to take a shot withthese kind of players….
Are you a mexi-can or a mexi-can't?
He's a backup
Because he’ll be a liability in coverage. Doesn’t have the hips to turn or something.

This reminds me
After the Liuget pick, Jimmy Raye made the point that the specific DE position Liuget will be playing lines up over the Guard typically in Manusky’s 3-4 defense…..which is exactly where Liuget lined up in Illinois’ 4-3. He seemed to be implying that guys like Cameron Jordan wouldn’t be as good of a fit as someone who played 4-3 DT well for Manusky’s D.

Yeah saw that too, but I think he was oversimplifying it
“over guard” is pretty vague when you are talking defensive line alignments. Inside shade of the guard (head on the OG’s inside shoulder pad) is a 3-technique and outside shade is a 5-technique. Pretty sure most 4-3 DT’s line up in in a 3-technique and most 3-4 DE’s line up in 5-technique.
I think Jimmy Raye was just simplifying it to say that you can call it a DE/DT or whatever you want, but the guy is still lining up (sort of) in front of a guard.
Agreed

Surprisingly, Kiper seems to be on board with our draft class so far
San Diego Chargers
The picks: Marcus Gilchrist (50), Jonas Mouton (61), Vincent Brown (82), Shareece Wright (89)
Summary: This one might surprise some people, but I like what the Chargers have done, even if you’re not so familiar with the names. Gilchrist and Wright are both pretty good players with upside at a position where the Chargers wanted to add depth, and Mouton provides help in the linebacking corps, while Brown gives Philip Rivers another needed target. As well, this is a team coming off a disastrous season of special teams, and it should add some help in that department with these picks. Sure, the Chargers have the advantage of a little more economy given the number of picks, but you can’t let that take away from the fact that they’ve made multiple picks that can make them better in 2011.

correction, was a "monster" in college
but will not be in the pros…still good value in the 6th and has shown he can carry the load with all the touches he had in college. Good insurance for the backfield
You sure?
Mathews can bounce it to the outside and this guy is just as fast as Mathews…
Anyways, that’s not what we’re gonna ask him to do. He’ll be a solid 3rd down back IMO
He will?
UConn would take him out on 3rd downs.

Bolts from the Blue - General Manager: It is what it isn't
Comes off the field frequently on passing downs. Has potential to improve in this area but needs work. Shows strong hands when facing the QB but has struggled on occasion to adjust. Not very smooth as a route runner; needs reps. Willing in pass pro but effort is spotty. Does a solid job of cutting the blitzer’s legs out from underneath him at times. But blocking is not an area of strength. He can get overwhelmed at the point of attack and he doesn’t always fight to sustain.

Bolts from the Blue - General Manager: It is what it isn't
Todman’s best chance to succeed in the NFL is as a third-down back despite his lack of elite explosiveness and top-end speed. His size will keep him from becoming a featured back, but he’s tough enough to handle five to 10 carries per game.
Is an instinctive runner who finds open hole and has a deceptive burst to get through it quickly. Is patient and does an excellent job of following blockers. Shows no fear running into contact. Uses his strength and balance to run through tacklers and gain yards after contact. Has good hands to catch the ball well out of the backfield. Is consistent and aware in pass protection. Cuts well to block pass rusher.
Everything on there is the same as I read
Except the pass blocking part. Seems to be some mixed feelings there.

Really like RB Jordan Todman to the Chargers. Not getting much discussion over at Buffalo Rumblings as the picks go by, but I’m keeping one eye on your new guy. He virtually carried Connecticut to a BCS bowl game this year. He’s taken here in the 6th round as depth, but I wouldn’t be surprised if we haven’t heard the last of him. He rushed for 2883 yards and 28 TDs in his last two seasons at UConn.

Funny how easy it is to find scouting reports that are so contradictory to one another
on these later round guys, everyone has their own opinion I guess
Funny indeed
One report says he doesn’t run good routes and struggles against rushers, and another says he is stellar in pass protection and being a reciever out of the backfield. i’m so confused! he’s small and runs a 4.4, thats close enough to sproles for me.

Never said it was
I’m not saying this guy is the next Mathews. I’m saying he was a better than decent RB in college, and think he has the skills to become a good 3rd down RB for us who provided great value in the 6th round…do you disagree?
I think it'd be a bad thing for him to get more than 65 carries in a season
I also think the Big East sucks and UConn obviously has a good running system in place.
I have no idea if he can be a good 3rd down RB (the contradictory scouting reports bother me), but I’m positive that his massive amount of Big East carries means nothing.

I disagree…any time a guy takes that many carries in 2 years (regardless of conference) it shows durability. It doesn’t mean he can take the same number of carries in the NFL by any means, or even anything close to it. But hey, the fields are all pretty much the same and getting taken to the ground that many times and staying healthy has to count for something.
He also ran a 4.40 forty, 38 inch vertical, 25 in the bench, 10’6" in the broad jump. Those are pretty impressive numbers for a 6th round pick at RB who was very productive in college.

if they are thinking about letting Weddle walk? They sure spent a lot of ammo on the DB’s in this draft.

They're not
He wouldn’t have been in the other day, chatting with Manusky about the defense, if there wasn’t some sort of handshake agreement in place. I’m confident of that.
I think this has to do with them realizing how little depth they have, both behind Sanders (who is injury prone) and behind the starting CBs (nobody wants Strickland starting).

Watching his press conference.
Daddy told him if he should play DB he should play all of them. So he’s been playing all of them since “little league”.
He says nickelback is “probably his favorite” because it combines all aspects.
Also says he’s covered kicks and even blocked for kicks. “I’m gonna be one of the first guys in line for special teams”

Pro-day
Gachkar weighed in at 230 pounds and was clocked at 4.58 seconds in the 40 — a time that would have ranked among the top five linebacker times at the combine. From published reports, only Texas A&M’s Von Miller, Ohio State’s Brian Rolle and Illinois’ Martez Wilson ran faster in Indianapolis. Maryland’s Adrian Moten and Syracuse’s Doug Houge were also in that range. Also, North Carolina’s Bruce Carter, LSU’s Kelvin Sheppard and Oregon’s Casey Matthews were not timed in the 40 at the combine. Gachkar reached 9 feet, 10 inches in the broad jump, which would have put him within the top eight linebackers at the combine.
Gachkar came out of relative anonymity this year to lead the Tigers with 81 tackles, including 8.5 for loss.
So....

reading from arrowheadaddict
As a Zou fan, I can tell you that nobody played harder or had more hustle on that D than Gachkar. He is small-framed for a pro LB, but has a nose for the ball. He fought back from an illness that almost took his life and missed a year of college ball due to it. Has the respect of the locker room and was voted as an MVP by them. Most importantly, Gachkar grew up in Kansas and no doubt showed OUTSTANDING JUDGEMENT by attending Mizzou. That’s gotta be worth something!!!
Sounds like he can run, and plays hard
Which give him a shot a being a really productive special teams player
stanley havili!!! huzzah!

“Gachkar is one of the most underrated linebacker prospects in the draft. He has all the skills to be a weak side defender at the next level and possesses the tools to produce on special teams.”
Glass should be 75% full, right?
Are you a mexi-can or a mexi-can't?
The Chargers Special Teams better be damn good this year.
